Raspberry 4 can be used with either a 32-bit armv7l/armhf operating system (usually Raspbian) or a 64-bit aarch64 OS like Debian, Ubuntu, Arch or the Raspbian aarch64 beta.

When using a 32-bit Raspbian the installation is done as for raspberry_pi_2_3 : link syntax?

For 64-bit aarch64/amd64 OSes Opencpn is installed using Flatpak, there is no difference to using desktop OSes like Ubuntu or Fedora. See Flatpak
